What’s Leaving Netflix December 2015: Last Call To Stream These Expiring Movies And Shows

In order to make room for brand new movies and shows every month, Netflix streaming has to let some titles go.

Get ready to binge through before saying goodbye to superhero staples like Batman Begins and cult favorites like Labyrinth. Iconic go-tos All About Eve and The Omen (along with its sequels) are also about to expire. But before you get too angry at Netflix, keep in mind the movies and shows that are leaving have a pretty good chance of eventually making their way back to the service. In the meantime, however, we’ve gone ahead and prioritized a few top picks you should binge through before their expiration date. We also listed what else is leaving so you can rummage through your List to see what’s been sitting there for weeks (months?) and get to streaming already.

All About Eve (1950)

Bette Davis is Margo Channing in this iconic showbiz flick about one aging theater actress’s journey into retirement while reluctantly taking her younger counterpart, Eve Harrington (Anne Baxter), under her wing. Perfect for streaming with family over the Thanksgiving holiday; make a point of re-watching All About Eve before it’s gone.

Batman Begins (2005)

Christopher Nolan directs this first installment of Christian Bale as Bruce Wayne, a vengeful orphan determined to bring peace to the city of Gotham. His inner demons, however, are often more persistent than those in the crime-ridden streets. Also starring Michael Caine, Liam Neeson, Katie Holmes, and Gary Oldman as Detective Gordon. If you’ve been watching Gotham, the series, on FOX, this might be a fun one to revisit.

Labyrinth (1986)

Jennifer Connelly and David Bowie star in Jim Henson’s mind-bending adventure that was surely intended for kids, but with time, became something to be cherished by cult fandom. Packed with bizarre visuals and a trippy soundtrack, Labyrinth is guaranteed entertainment from start to finish.

My Best Friend’s Wedding (1997)

When Julianne Potter (Julia Roberts) discovers her best friend, Michael (Dermott Mulroney), is engaged, she sets out to tell him she loves him but is interrupted by his bride-to be (Cameron Diaz), who desperately wants her in the wedding. [Stream My Best Friend’s Wedding on Netflix]

The Silence of the Lambs (1991)

Jonathan Demme directs this Oscar-winning horror thriller chronicling the crimes of Hannibal Lecter (Anthony Hopkins), a serial killer whose past is imperative in helping solve a young FBI agent’s (Jodie Foster) case involving missing women. If you’re already over the feel-good holiday specials of the season, a creepy classic like The Silence of the Lambs might be a nice change of pace.
